Unless it's a day later of course.
You think it just magically disappears?

No, I think it magically disperses to non-tox levels.
You've got bigger issues with brake dust from the military vehicles in the area.

Um... OK.
NOT.
The M-1 does not have Carbon Fiber Brakes.
Only the Emergency halt brake it. When it grabs the things could be nealy whitehot and it'll work.
Of course, last I saw one up close was 1987. So this may have changed.

Hrm...thought I had seen something
regarding the continued use of organic brake pads in alot of older military vehicles. that would be carbon and/or asbestos.
But, looks like they may all have shifted to semi-metallic...so maybe i overstated the brake dust thing.
How about if I say the exhaust fumes instead???

Depends on if the fuel is...
Low Sulfur Highway Fuel (between 500pps and 600pps), which unfortunately is not to be used in 2007 and later Diesel Motors, it may cause damage in your econo-diesel without proper pre-heating (which they are not supposed to have fuel pre-heaters)

So lemme get thist straight...
After 2007, we're supposed to use High Sulphur Diesel Fuel?

In 'econo-diesel's.
If you're not interested in fuel economy, you can burn whatever and however much you like. If you DO want fuel economy, you will be required to increase the amount of pollutants you produce per tankful.
See? We ARE being terraformed for the benefit of our alien masters!

Now, dammit man. You and Drew are beginning to Scare me.
Especially when you both get my train of thought right away.
Yes, you are correct Skip. More pollution for better economy of fuel.
And Yes, if you do run regular Diesel Fuel (500pps stuff) in the econo-diesels (costing an extra $3K) it will ruin them to the point of becoming "regular" diesels.
But, how does that ring with the environmentalists, more pollution for better efficency? Well, better mileage means less fuel... which means less Pollution. So you see, more pollution means less pollution because of efficency! GOTCHYA!
So see we are reducing Pollution and saving Murica money at the same time!
We must be geniuses in our own minds!
